Mrs. Anna Hutcherson, whose arrest tor

lodged in Jail about 7 o'clock Wednesday
evening. She was placed in cell by her
self, and nothing was heard from her
until about 10 o'clock, when the other in
mates of the Jail were attracted by IN
usual noises, as Of one in ccnvulsions,
coming from her cell. The

severe commissions, and, within an hour,
had four of them. She then quieted down
for a half hour or more, and when The
STATESMAN reporter left the jail at 1:45
this morning, was lying in an uncon-

Maine magazine, that she has not given
no literary work for periodicals. She says
she has been an associate editor with Mrs.

American History. To the Maine editor
she further says: "The untruthful and

Tne negro vote was much divided, while
the foreign vote, the Swedes excepted,

Sea Sickness Prevented.
To the Editor of The Statesman

10 tllo hultuT VI luo obutcphihhs
have just read in your paper the ac-
count copied from the New York Herald OF
the preventive of sea sickness proposed
by DR.. w. James, of Harvard college
namely: clustering or otherwise counter
irritating the skin around the ears" and
your excellent practical remarks upon the
same.
DIR. James theory is but enc among
many preventives that have been sug-
gested for the dreaded "mal de mer." 1t
may or may not prove efficacious, and, as
you say, trial Dan do no harm; hut
think it one of the many tnat have read
and heard of which is least likely to prove
efficacious, because sea sickness ia more
disorder of the stomach than of the head
or the nervous system. The head, OF
course, is affected by sea sickness, as it is
by almost any serious arrangement of the
stomach. A preventive or cure must go
to the root of the evil. / have had not
little experience in ocean travel, and
think can offer better and surer pre-
yentive of sea sickness than that Of DR..
James, or even the one recently proposed
by Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, so widely cir
culated through the newspapers. This is
simply an active purgation of the bowels
before going on board ship-if this be
possible or, at least, after going on
board, and light doses of some mild
aperient every day, or every other day
for few days-just enough to keep the
bowels moderately active. have tried
this remedy myself, and others have done
so at my suggestion, always with the best
results. / have never been sea sick,
and those who used the remedy at my
suggestion have always escaped sea-sick-
nese, although their companions suffered
and were forced TO offer the customary
tribute to Neptune.
Sea-sickness is caused, / think, by the
constant agitation of the contents OF the
stomach and bowels, creating gases that
trouble the head and cause nauseoui
feeling in the stomach, which makes des
perate efforts to be relieved of its burden
It is fact well known to ocean traveller
that when the stomach has vomited fortl
its contents relief is obtained from sea
sickness. The exceptions to the rule oc-
